SOAP V1 / V2 - Create/Update article speed problem

NikkiNikk Total Posts: 6 Joined: 2012-11-26 Ignore user	Hello! Im very new to the Magento World and i started to build a PHP applikation to export ERP data (XML) into a Magento Shop. My scripts works already, but very very very slow. So, i have a few questions to speed everything up! I have a bunch of simple test articles, and, the workflow is (after building them with the xml data) for every single article: try to update the article, if the article cannot be created (exception is thrown ..) try to create it. So, my dilemma is, that a multicall would be better, but i have to check each article, if the article is already saved - update it, or the article is not available - create it. My 20 test articles need about 40 seconds with a SOAP V1 connection, and over 60 seconds with a SOAP V2 connection (yes, only a different path to the V2 slows the scripting down! anybody knows why? ... ( Any help would be awesome! Hope to hear something from you Greetings! Niklas

Yes, it is slow without an optimized server or if you have a large number of categories/products, you can speed it up by changing indexing to manual update.

Hey Vanquish, thank you very much for your answer! Ok, so i have to use the V1 to gain more speed. I found this way to turn the auto index off, and after the import, to start it manually: `$processes = Mage::getSingleton('index/indexer')->getProcessesCollection(); $processes->walk('setMode', array(Mage_Index_Model_Process::MODE_MANUAL)); $processes->walk('save'); // Here goes your // Importing process // ................ $processes->walk('reindexAll'); $processes->walk('setMode', array(Mage_Index_Model_Process::MODE_REAL_TIME)); $processes->walk('save');` The first step works (to shut the automatic index off), but the second doesnt. Do you have another way to stop the auto index, and start the index after passend the import code? Thank you very much for helping! The versionswitch from V2 to V1 changed to speed to an half of it. Greetings! Niklas

CSV imports are normally for one-off imports, not incremetal daily updates, the API is the correct approach for incremental updates however you need a solution which captures the deltas (changed records) and uploads them via the API. When you reindex all after a flat file upload indexes are rebuilt which can affect the frontend, the larger the product database, number of store views, number of categories, the bigger the problem will be. This is why the API is slower, it auto updates the index (if set to auto) for the required item but does not have any negative impact, hence the requirement for deltas as a daily API full load would be too slow. If you need delta uploads we can put you in contact with a company who have a delta solution for Magento, however we do not use flat file uploads except for individual migrations or one-off loads.
